Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for preventing a malfunction of a touchpad in an electronic device are provided. The method includes determining whether one or more input signals is continuously received due to one or more keys of a key input unit being continuously depressed, and controlling an activation state of the touchpad according to the determination result.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for estimating a Doppler frequency in a mobile communication system are provided. The apparatus includes an estimator for temporarily estimating a maximum Doppler frequency based on channel values sampled according to a first period in a frame, a detector for calculating at least one correlation value between at least one channel value additionally sampled in the frame and at least one channel value sampled over the first period, and for determining whether aliasing occurs based on the correlation value, and a determiner for determining a final maximum Doppler frequency according to the occurrence or non-occurrence of the aliasing.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for reducing power consumption of a receiver of a mobile communication system are provided. The apparatus includes an adaptive multi-tap segment channel estimator for determining a segment size according to a delay spread value for each channel tap, for determining a channel estimation frequency by determining a sum of segment block energy, and for allocating each segment to the channel estimator.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for controlling iterative decoding in a turbo decoder are provided, in which a maximum number of iterations is determined for current data to be decoded based on at least one of current HARQ information necessary for a HARQ operation of the current data, previous HARQ information about previous data, and early stop information indicating whether iterative decoding of the previous data was early stopped. A turbo decoder iteratively decodes the current data within the maximum number of iterations.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for receiving a multipath signal in a wireless communication system are provided. The apparatus includes a sample buffer, a buffer index controller, a finger, and a Deskewer buffer and combiner. The sample buffer stores sample data corresponding to a defined number of chips among reception data converted into digital signals. The buffer index controller controls a position of the sample buffer to store the converted data and a position of the sample buffer to output data. The finger receives sample data from a specific position of the sample buffer and demodulates each multipath signal. The Deskewer buffer and combiner eliminates a temporal retard of each demodulated multipath signal and combines the multipath signals.
Abstract:
An equalizer based receiver operation method and apparatus in a mobile communication system are provided. The method includes estimating a channel for a multi path receive signal, analyzing a delay profile of a multi path channel, and selecting a tap position from a plurality of tap positions of an equalizer depending on the analyzed delay profile.
Abstract:
A data transmitting/receiving apparatus and method for improving the reliability of data bits in a CDMA mobile communication system. High-priority bits are mapped to a high-reliability bit position and low-priority bits, to a low-reliability bit position in symbols. Thus system performance is improved at a transmission.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for performing a Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmission in a wireless communication system are provided. An operating method of a base station for the CoMP transmission in a wireless communication system includes performing a cell clustering for CoMP transmission of a terminal, receiving a reference signal from the terminal, determining cell IDentifier (ID) information of the terminal, when the terminal uses a cell ID for the CoMP transmission, comparing a Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) value of the reference signal with a threshold, and when the CQI value of the reference signal is greater than or equal to the threshold, participating in the CoMP transmission of the terminal.
Abstract:
A data transportation/reception apparatus and method in a mobile communication system. The data transportation apparatus and method divides transport data bits into bits having higher priority and bits having lower priority, maps the bits having higher priority to bit positions having higher reliability, and maps the bits having lower priority to bit positions having lower reliability. The data reception apparatus and method demodulates received modulated symbols, divides the demodulated coded bits into two coded bit groups according to priority, deinterleaving the coded bit groups using different deinterleavers, and decodes the deinterleaved coded bits.
